About this file

This is a Brand Name Justification document for the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The James H. Quillen Veterans Affairs Medical Center (JHQVAMC) is requesting four additional Stryker TPX consolidated operating room equipment (Core) 2 Consoles for compatible hand tools to be used during surgery operations. The procurement is specifically for Stryker equipment because the facility already has two existing Stryker TPX consoles, and the Stryker TPS High Speed Micro Saw/Drill System and Stryker TPX Micro Saw/Drill System are proprietary systems that only work with Stryker consoles.

The document justifies the brand-specific purchase by explaining that the CORE 2 Consoles are used to power corded Stryker Power Tools, including Rem-B/TPX Micro Power Tools, Pi Drive High Speed Drills, S2 ENT Drills, ENT and Joint Shavers, and Stryker Bone Mill Plus systems. These tools can be used to cut, drill, ream, decorticate, shape and smooth bone, teeth, and other surgical applications. Stryker has provided an authorized distributor letter for two service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses (SDVOSBs) capable of providing the Stryker TPX Core 2 Console. The document is signed by the Contracting Officer Jeannette Morphew and is effective on 11/15/2024.
